Richard Regan, Resident of Long Terawan Mulu.
*Campaign against the construction of the Tutoh dam*
Richard is from Long Terawan. A village that will be affected if the Tutoh hydro dam is built. Yesterday Sarawak's deputy minister of energy and environmental sustainability - Dr. Hazland Abang Hipni assured that the Tutoh dam that will be built, is safe and strong. According to the minister, similar dam construction has been built in several other countries and it has proven to be strong.
According to Richard, we do not question the strength and safety of the dam. We question building dams is not a good development plan for rural people. Those who will profit, the state government, cronies and big companies. This has been proven in Bakun, Murum and Batang Ai. Those who will be severely affected in their lives, are the original people who live or are displaced due to the construction of the dam. This has been proven in Sarawak. We ask to cancel the Tutoh dam construction plan. Build roads and bridges to our village. For agricultural projects, planting vegetables, rice or raising chickens or fish to us. This will further advance our nation. Dr. Hazland was interviewed by reporters after attending the Borneo Environment 2023 conference at a hotel in Kuching.
